CJ disc brake kit

[Ratclge]

I purchased a cheap frt disk brake kit from CJ bronco, instructions say you need to machine your old hub center to make it work. I’m having trouble getting this work sourced, anyone have a source near Tn

So this kid is just rotors that you put on your old hub?
Got a link to the kit you bought? Or better yet, a link to the instructions?
Thanks.

Good luck!

Duff's introduced it a few years ago too as a "budget disc brake kit", I believe. At one point, they had the option of sending the hubs into them for machining but I think they've discontinued that option.

Any machine shop should be able to do this, looks like simple lathe work.

Are you calling machine shops or automotive type shops?

Also this kit doesn’t have dust shields for the back side, this kit is not worth its price.

Most of us leave those off when doing brake conversions.
